No selections active. Tool options would break as soon as I started gimp and clicked back and forth between tools. I reinstalled multiple times. tried without addons, restarted my computer multiple times and it still broke. I finally uninstalled and installed the 2.7.4 version I had been using for awhile and it works great.

I could have sworn I had no issues yesterday when using 2.7.5. I did have a power failure last night while the computer was on and gimp was running. I don't know if that could have affected a file that gimp uses. I would think a clean reinstall would fix it though. I made sure to delete all folders and files that the uninstaller didn't get each time too.
